but you score fights based on emotion. who's coming forward(into punches) and who's throwing more(and missing) are your criteria. i use the actual rules and that's probably why i have hopkins winning easily.

No not really. Hopkins started the fight well but did very little in the last half apart from fall over and fake low blows. Calzaghe outlanded him.

where were all the punches calzaghe landed though? in your head. like i said based on emotion. you wanted calzaghe to win so bad that you think he is landing when he really isn't. if you just scored the rounds based on who is outlanding who hopkins wins easily so i don't know why you are saying that now. yes calzaghe won 3 out of the last 4 rounds but too bad he lost at least 6 out of the first 8. do those rounds not count or do the last rounds count for double?

aren't you the person who scores fights based on who is simply throwing more? yea i like to pay a little more attention then that. stick with those hollow platitudes about outworking and faking low blows. you have no substance to your argument on why calzaghe won. you don't get it and you don't want to get it.

first off, save those idle threats for somebody who is scared...

second off, i don't mind arguing with delusional hopkins fans who have to resort to calling people ****** and idiots, just as long as you admit that you are a pathetic ballicker who's butthurt that hopkins only managed a draw in a fight where he obviously needed a ko to win...

hopkins fans are just like him...a bunch of whining crying b**ch asses....

Correction: you don't like arguing with someone who actually know what they're talking about,and who's actually seen the fight in discussion.It's become abundantly clear that you've not even seen the fight.



There's nothing wrong with virtually every single one of your posts involving some form of criticism of a certain fighter - but you're so ****** and ignorant of the topic that you love discussing so much that a debate can only be carried so far.You're incapable of furthering a reasonable discussion.

calzaghe won because he won far more rounds than hopkins, who was landing maybe 1 punch per round and faded badly down the stretch pure and simple...discussion over

schooling? all calz did was flail his arms like a windmill...

So how did you score it exactly? 7 rounds to 5 for Hopkins?

but that's not what happened at all. repeating the same falsehoods over and over doesn't make them true. going by your lofty hyperbolic standards if hopkins landed 1 punch a round calzaghe landed zero.

did hopkins land a lot of punches compared to the gatti-ward fight? no. did he land a lot of punches compared to calzaghe? yes. all you have to do in boxing is be better than your opponent and he was.
